Looking for Tagalog Love Quotes? Metro Manila Barkada Got You Covered!

Love can bring out the "cheesiness" in most people when in love. Filipinos in particular can be very romantic towards their special someone. Whether they are on the courting stage or already in a relationship, there will always come a time when love birds need to go on separate ways. So the question is what is left for them to express their love towards each other? The answer is by a healthy exchange of sometimes silly but always romantic Tagalog love quotes.

Some good Tagalog Quotes that is bursting with cheesy but romantic goodness.

"Nagseselos ako sa mga taong nagiging malapit sayo. Lalo na at wala ako. Hindi naman sa selfish ako o possessive. Takot lang akong maging masaya ka sa iba at makalimutan mo kung paano kita napasaya."

"If you feel so sad, lean on my shoulder. If you want to cry, eto panyo. Pero pag di mo na kaya, yakap na lang kita. Para feel mo, hindi ka nag-iisa. Nandito lang me lagi just 4u!"

"Kahit ilang beses pa akong masaktan dahil sayo, di kita iiwan, di ako susuko. Dahil kung may 100 dahilan para iwan ka, hahanap pa rin ako ng isang dahilan para ipaglaban ka."


You wouldn't believe the volume of romantic and love quotations available for one to use. One can send them to people on a regular basis, but if you want your recipient to drown with your uncanny silliness and love towards them, try creating your own love quotes. As much as possible avoid sending old and re-used love quotes to your special someone. Try spinning an old one and give it with your own twist, your unique take. You can get various inspiration from various tagalog quotes online. Depending on your partner's tolerance or your guts, you can either be too cheesy or just be the dashing romantic type. Everything depends on the execution. Although sending them love quotes and keeping a steady communication amidst the distance matters, what a couple should always keep in mind, is to keep the love alive. Nurture it and let it take its natural course. Be loyal and accept each other no matter what. For mere words are nothing without action and true love.

RPG Metanoia: A Milestone in Filipino Animated 3-D Film Making this 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival

After seeing the first teaser trailer for the Philippines' first 3-D animated feature film RPG Metanoia I can't help but to feel excited, proud, and happy that finally a 3-D animated film is created by a Filipino for the Filipinos. Many Filipinos have made it big in the field of 3-D animation industry in the abroad, but sadly never in the local scene. I have always dreamed of seeing a full feature 3-D animated film that is catered and made for the Filipinos by the Filipinos, and I still can't believe it that it would be sooner than I expected.

Another Good Reason to Why Celebrate the 112th Day of Philippine Independence

Happy 112th Day of Independence everyone. Come on do not complicate things by giving me an argument of the definition of freedom or the essence of real independence of the Philippines. There are more reasons to why celebrate the 112th Independence Day of the Philippines and here it is.



We have been celebrating our nation's independence for more than a century. We commemorate all of the hardships, heroism, failures and triumph of our fellow Filipinos and our nation against the tyranny of past colonizers. This is one of the primary reason on why we should celebrate the Independence Day of the Philippines.



The second one is pretty obvious which is the final Independence Day of the love her or hate her 14th President of the Philippines, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. With more than ten years of being the Head of State, her time will finally be up as she will soon step down to give way to the President-elect Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" Cojuangco Aquino III.

Arroyo's regime was filled with allegations of corruptions, controversies and possible association with political killings which has tainted her image as a leader to most of the Filipino people. Though up to the present these allegations have not been proven, these issues are more than enough for most Filipinos to despise her reign. Arroyo experience various attempts of rebellion, protests, and impeachment along her ten years of regime but it all failed as she endured all of it. So don't you just love it when you can finally see the day that the power bestowed to her by the Philippine constitution shall finally be relieved from her. But of course in her final attempt to make amends from all of the bad reputation that darkened her reputation, she will showcase all of the good things her administration has done for the welfare of the Filipinos and country as a whole. I am not really against that much on her reign, for she can't be all "that" bad, it is only that she might committed some grave mistakes which overshadowed all the good things she has done. Though it is interesting to learn what her administration has done for the Filipino people, the fact that her term will finally be over (for me) is a good reason to why we should be excited over the celebration of 112th Day of Independence.



With a new regime taking over, will Filipinos finally experience the freedom they most dreamed about? An honest, just and transparent regime that will alleviate everyone's life here in the Philippines.

Komikon 2010 - The 2010 Gathering of Filipino Comics, Artists and Enthusiasts

Komikon or Filipino Komiks Convention is one of my most highly anticipated local event yearly but sadly I missed last years Komikon but this time I will not! Featuring the most talented mainstream and independent Filipino Comics artist, Komikon hass slowly became an underground tradition for Filipino artists, comic enthusiasts, and art people alike.

Summer Komikon 2010


Comics were once the main source of entertainment of the Filipino people before there were actually good Philippine television shows (well, if you'll observe these days looks like there isn't much of a change). This has given birth to the popular Pinoy comics superheroes which on the other hand was consistently ruined by television giant corporations with their television versions and lame screen writing. This is why it is time to revolt and bring back or help revitalize the Philippine comics industry by supporting the summer Komikon this April and the main Komikon at around October-November.



KOMIKON SUMMER DE AVANCE
April 17, 2010, Saturday, 10am - 8pm
UP Bahay ng Alumni, UP Diliman, Quezon City
Entrance Fee: P50.00 (NO PRICE HIKE!)


Yours truly will be there to cover everything like what I did last Summer Komikon 2009 (An Aftermath of the First Komikon Summer Fiesta 2009) and hope that my digicam will soon be fixed.

Pacquaio - Hatton Aftermath: K.O. By Round 2 and the Free Philippine TV Coverage

May 3, 2009 (Sunday) - Today the Philippines became an almost crime-free country thanks to the Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton Bout. The Philippine Pride Manny Pacquiao has once again showed his power and supremacy over his fight with Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton.

Pacquiao - Hatton Aftermath

A Pacquiao vs Hatton Aftermath


My day started with me waking up at around 12:30 pm - 1:00 pm in the afternoon, and was way too late to watch the online livestream of Pacquiao - Hatton fight so I relied on the Philippine local coverage of Pacquaio-Hatton fight on the Kapuso channel GMA and was a bit disappointed about how the viewing experience went.

My major complain against GMA's coverage of the Pacquiao- Hatton Fight is the overkill of television advertisements or product endorsements they ran over the course of the coverage. Some might argue, if you don't want to see any television ads then go pay for the service, well that sure is true but can't we at least get some quality free Philippine coverage without a TV Ad overkill? Quality in a sense that they at least have a sense of balance in running those TV ads.

Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton


Complains on GMA Kapuso 7 Philippine Television Coverage of the Manny Pacquiao and Ricky Hatton Fight


GMA 7 only showed the Philippine National Anthem "Lupang Hinirang" sang (in his own way ala-American Idol kind of a way) by Martin Nievera. Mr. Nievera's version of "Lupang Hinirang" is not that bad and is excusable if he was on a singing competition or a social gathering, but in international events like the Pacquaio-Hatton Bout where all eyes of almost every Filipinos are on it, I think it was better if he stick with the traditional way of how the Philippine National Anthem should be sang. Oh well, let the nationalistic and patriotic Filipinos deal with Mr. Nievera once he set foot on Philippines again.

Going back to GMA 7, I believe they should at least played the United States of America and United Kingdom's national anthem to recognized them and to show respect rather than infesting it with ads. As I've heard from father, who watched the Pacquiao-Hatton Fight on live on a public viewing in our municipality said that Tom Jones sang United Kingdom's National anthem which GMA 7 didn't show and replaced it with nuisance Television ads.

Going back to the actual fight... yes, they managed to show the fight amidst the infestation of advertisements. As it start and disregarding those almost 30 minute-filled TV ads, the two fighters exchanged blows against each other. What one can easily notice was that Hatton tends to charge or rush towards Pacquiao which Pacquaio use for his advantage and the result was Ricky Hatton falling down two times by round one. I didn't like Ricky "Hatton's Clinching Style" of cheating, I mean fighting. Why clinch when you can attack head on your opponent? Does that mean that he admits to himself that he can't fight him head on? Well, I will never would know.

Though, I know that Pacquiao vs Hatton Fight will end in Round 2 (thanks to my father for spoiling the details) I was still curious on how will he beat Hatton. So here comes Round 2, Hatton managed to deliver quite some blow to Pacquiao as well but not K.O.-ing unlike what Pacquiao delivers to his opponent. The climax was the Knock Out Punch will delivered to Ricky Hatton by Manny Pacquaio which concluded the much talked about fight.

Not to sound arrogant, but was this the "surprise" Ricky Hatton was so confidently talking about? Well, it sure did surprise us though, because we though he could at least endure the match until the 7th or 8th round but he didn't. We were indeed surprised. I guess GMA Kapuso Channel was also surprised at the immediate outcome of the fight, so in order to earn more from their advertisers they repeated the fight from Round one after that concluding fight in round 2. I was proud and was ecstatic on how Manny Pacquiao once again showed the world his power and supremacy in the boxing ring (a feeling which almost all the Filipinos felt that time, I believe).

I will leave you with this video of How Manny Pacquiao Knocked Out Ricky Hatton
